Hi,

I have a bar graph in flex. i need to show labels on the x axis only after a definite intervals. actually this is to avoid overlapping of labels. for eg. if it is the 12 months shown on x axis, i need to show Jan April July etc. instead of Jan,Feb,March,April etc.  
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks  
Ananya.
